Should there be some type of rubber floor mat used under the seats. Raised wood area behind the normal floor mat used. Any suggestions?

Anyone with any input?

There is no other mat listed for the floor of the 79-B/225-A in the parts books.

Thanks Marco, My thought was since there is not many left, this might be an item that no one stocked because not much call for it. I will be taking this truck to Niagra Falls Meet, for the Touring Class.

Tom, I am in agreement with Marco regarding this floor mat. Any additional rubber matting under the seats would have interfered with the access to the floor mounted tool box that is found under the seats in some models.

BTW, yesterday I acquired the only other roof mounted tail light bracket that I have seen. This unusual bracket is clearly shown in the parts manual along with the mounting hardware. I got deducted for the hardware at both National meets, as apparently the judges were looking for carriage head bolts.
